Why Is My 1n Starlet Soooo Slow?

[Raz]

Hi, i have came to own another 1N and this one is far far far far slower then my older one NP80 or something. I now have NP90 and this one is much slower and less torquee.

I recently sat in the old one i had which i sold to my friend, and asked him to take me for a spin. his car is much faster then mine? How is this when we both share the same engine?

its prob down to how well the engine has been looked after in the past.

other things to look at would be when was it last servviced ?

how many miles has yours ghot compared to your mates?

try changeing your deisiel could be bad stuff.

you could try making the exhaust a straight through beating out the centre og all the box's cat etc etc would liven it up

do a full engine flush engine cleaner , deisel cleaner to clean the injectors etc and oil treatmeant.

id simply say down to weight, the np80 will weigh considerabley less than the lardy np90

It just sucks ass. i hate it. turned up the fuel etc, but the speed just drops when it comes to a hill. Ther other one is faster in acceleration, but why will it feel more torquee if its ligher? or is that normal.

Does someone want to buy mine? the back is stripped, still have seats/buckles etc etc screws and everything.

Gear ratio is impressive though.

1st = 23mph

2nd = 48mph

3rd = 77mph

4th = well, it doesn't do more then 70 unless its a downhill.

i think thats pretty nice, its longer then my 1.9 golf but its just slow.

I don't understand why you even bother with it, just get a normal EP91.
